25-year old Miss Malaika 2017 winner Pearl
Nyarko has proven many doubting ‘Thomases’ wrong by vehemently denying
having any sexual relationship with the organizers of the pageant in
order to win the coveted crown.

In recent times, sexual allegations against top Hollywood Film
players have been on the rise with many raising doubts about the
genuineness of talent in the creative arts industry.

But speaking on the Hot Gist on Spyderlee Entertainment TV on
Tuesday, Ms.Nyarko debunked speculations that she might have slept with
the organizers of the pageant in order to be crowned ‘Miss Malaika 2017’

‘The fact that you are participating in a beauty pageant doesn’t mean
you are sleeping around with the organizers. I didn’t sleep around with
the organizers and I don’t think any other person who participated did
sleep with the organizers as well. So if you are out there and you are
interested in participating in a beauty pageant, you can go ahead; if
that’s what you are passionate about, just pursue it. The organizers are
there to help us; they are not there to take advantage of us,’ she
said.

According to beauty queen, she’s won so she needs to concentrate on
her projects now. ‘The way forward now is to embark on several projects
and the major one is to tackle Autism. With the minor projects; come
December, I’ll visit Royal Seeds Orphanage to make a donation,’ she
revealed.

Held at the National theatre on November 4, 2017, the grand finale of
the Miss Malaika beauty pageant saw 25-year-old Pearl Nyarko emerge as
ultimate winner, beating 9 other contestants to annex the throne.

The feat makes Ms. Nyarko, an MPhil candidate at the University of
Ghana, the 15th queen since the inception of the competition. Aside the
3cs (cash, car and a crown), Pearl has also won herself a contract as
the Face of Glamz Makeup
